Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram shows that the one triangle can be divided into two equal right triangles. Because of this, you can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this problem. a and b are the two sides of the angles, and c is the hypotenuse.
The given lengths are 5 as the hypotenuse and 3 as one length. (You have 3 as a given length because the two triangles have a length of 6 on one side. 6/2 = 3)
a² + b² = c²
a² = c² - b²
a² = 5² - 3²
a² = 25² - 9²
a² = 16
a = 4
It's 96 if you were wondering
Answer:
- The system of equations is x + y = 85 and 7/20x+2/5y=31
- To eliminate the x-variable from the equations, you can multiply the equation with the fractions by 20 and multiply the other equation by -7.
- B-She used 60 minutes for calling and 25 minutes for data.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is always a good idea to start by defining variables in such a problem. Here, we can let x represent the number of calling minutes, and y represent the number of data minutes. The the total number of minutes used is ...
x + y = 85
The total of charges is the sum of the products of charge per minute and minutes used:
7/20x + 2/5y = 31.00
We can eliminate the x-variable in these equations by multiplying the first by -7 and the second by 20, then adding the result.
-7(x +y) +20(7/20x +2/5y) = -7(85) +20(31)
-7x -7y +7x +8y = -595 +620 . . . . eliminate parentheses
y = 25 . . . . . . . . simplify
Then the value of x is
x = 85 -y = 85 -25
x = 60

Work Shown:
You could expand terms out and simplify, but I think it's more handy to leave it in this form so you can easily spot the center and radius from a glance.
